IRC Mission and Goals

The International Relations Club (IRC) has served as a cultural, social and educational link since it was founded in 1964.  All UW-Stout students are invited to become members. IRC encourages interaction between international students and U.S. students.  International students have many questions when they come to the United States and many things they want to experience.  IRC exists to help students in those areas. Meetings are held once each month, and one or two other activities are organized each month.   IRC meetings and events are open to everyone in the Stout community. 

IRC GOALS
